WELCOME TO MARAHEIM
A TOWN STUCK IN THE CRACK OF THE VEIL OF SEVERAL REALITIES
Welcome to Maraheim, a world steeped in shadows and whispers, where the eerie waters of Morgana Lake lap against the forgotten shores of a city bound by supernatural fates. This mysterious metropolis, divided into a bustling cityscape, a historic old town, and an ancient fishing village, is the heartbeat of a larger realm known as Maraheim County. It’s a place where the veil between the ordinary and the arcane is perilously thin, hosting haunted schools, enigmatic vanishings, and dark tales that chill the bone.
​
Maraheim’s legacy is preserved and expanded by the Paranorth Group, a dedicated collective of storytellers and artists who delve into the paranormal and macabre to bring the city's chilling tales to life. This group, founded by Nick Olsson, Matthias Ransheim, and Emmeli Brännström, is the creative force behind the Maraheim Project. Nick, with his deep-rooted love for ghostly narratives and horror, leads the project with a blend of linguistic flair and musical talent, crafting stories that echo through the darkened alleys of Maraheim. Matthias, with brush and color at his ready, captures the eerie essence of Maraheim’s phantoms and beasts, bringing them to vivid life on canvas. Emmeli, a weaver of ghostly tales, infuses the project with folklore and the spectral, her stories threading through the fabric of Maraheim’s haunted history.
​
Together, the Paranorth Group explores this spectral city through various lenses—the Phantasmopedia, an encyclopedia of ethereal entities; The Maraheim Chronicles, a collection of narratives that span the eerie history of the city; and the Maraheim Information Center, which offers a deep dive into the lore and history of every shadowed corner of the county. Their work is a call to those who dare to explore the unknown, to step into a world where the past whispers and the shadows play.
​
So, we invite you to join us at maraheim.com, where the fog never quite lifts, and the past is never truly gone. Here, every whisper in the dark is a story, and every shadow has a tale. Welcome, traveler, to Maraheim—may your stay be thrillingly unforgettable.
